tennis is to 'scottish' what fiscal responsability is to 'greek'.
i have a cousin who's on a scholarship in the U.S trying to go 'pro tennis'. it makes me uncomfortable watching her play in those tiny skirts.

Press in Australia has been a bitover all this. "Worst Wimbledon since 1938" and stuff like that since all the men got knocked out in round one. One even had some old tennis bloke blaming it on Sydney house prices.
But even to a casual tennis follower like me, I knew there wasn't much more to hope for. Hewitt is a million years old and was only good really young at any rate, anyways he played very well vs Tsonga. Tomic on the other hand was terrible, come on at least try. Stosur was a bit more of a disappointment but she's getting on a bit too.
Still, Australia hasn't had much in mens tennis since Rafter was still around and before Hewitt got married the first time.

But don't you have a young, extremely talented girl from Melbourne to fly your flag for the next 10 years? I think her name is Laura Robson or something. Oh wait...

Tennis was always a bit too much back and forth for me.
Guessing it's from the groaning/screaming etc from the womens games because they "need to do it to get more power in their shots." I would challenge any of them to play just a single game with only making minimal sounds, I mean granted there's going to be the occasional grunt of effort but to make that godawful noise every single bastard time you hit the fucking ball? come on...
Granted some of the blokes do it as well, thinking more about Nadal who tends to do it on occasions although that's not a problem nowalthough I don't think it's anywhere near as prevelant or consistent (or it could just be more noticable in the women's games).
Edit: curses, beaten.

The cancer that is killing women's tennis is women playing tennis.
It's fucking unbearable to watch them double-fault games away and get a couple shot rallies.
Then you get the lumbering apes the Williams sisters.
On another annoying side is that I can't get Wimbledon HD coverage because the channel that covers it isn't included in the fucking $100 dollar TV package through Rogers because TSN isn't included.
What happened to NBC covering Wimbledon? I hate the commentators but shit, at least I could watch Wimbledon.
Just stream it you scrub. Why on earth would you pay that much for tv channels with all the stuff available on the internet?
First Brit into the Gentleman's Singles Final at Wimbledon for 74 years. Fuck the fuck Yeah!
If you stop the women moaning, you might as well go the whole hog & stop them wearing skirts that barely cover their hips etc. At that point all that's left is watching women play sport, & nobody does that.
